About the PHILATEX

Our Publication's Legacy

The SAPA PHILATEX has been the official publication of the San Antonio Philatelic Association since 1954. It evolved from a club bulletin that was first distributed in 1953.

Over the decades, the PHILATEX has served as:

  • A chronicle of club activities and achievements
  • A platform for members to share philatelic knowledge
  • A resource for collectors in the San Antonio area
  • A connection point for the broader philatelic community

Today, the newsletter continues to be published quarterly, maintaining its tradition of excellence while embracing modern design and digital distribution alongside print copies for members.

Contributing to the PHILATEX

We welcome contributions from members for upcoming issues. Articles, collecting tips, stamp reviews, and other philatelic content are always appreciated. If you'd like to contribute, please contact our newsletter editor at nrmabie@gmail.com.
